About Taya
Taya Bassett is an NCPS counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with people who are feeling stuck by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and family tensions, and life changes. Sessions are described as respectful and sensitive in tone.
Her work often focuses on practical concerns like motivation, confidence, sleeping problems, anger and coping with grief. She also supports people facing addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related challenges, and compassion fatigue. Taya lists additional areas such as adoption and foster care, attachment and abandonment issues, blended family difficulties, and body image concerns.
In meetings she adapts discussion and the treatment plan to the person in front of her. That means talking through what matters to the client and choosing techniques that fit their goals. Conversations aim to be straightforward and problem-focused, with steps people can try between sessions.
Taya brings experience helping people through career setbacks, divorce and separation, communication and control issues, and caregiving stress. She also works with people affected by cancer in themselves or close family, and with those wrestling with guilt, shame or forgiveness.
People interested in starting a course of work are asked to follow the site booking flow. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling an initial session to set priorities and discuss practical next steps.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people manage distress and find clearer priorities. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small changes in daily life; they are often helpful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems. Behavioural strategies emphasise practical actions and routines, such as activity planning, sleep hygiene and graded exposure for avoidance, which can reduce stress and build confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review concerns, goals and preferences with the client and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative decision is revisited as progress is made and as priorities shift.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving and daily life. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full appointment is not needed, or let people choose audio-only if they prefer not to be on camera. Registered or accredited professionals offer these practical ways of working alongside in-person care, depending on what they list as available.
